Valentines outfit.
Hello everyone, I thought I wasn't going to be able to post for quite awhile as I accidentally spilt some hot chocolate on my laptop. The screen went white, I started bawling my eyes out and a long phone call was made to my dad (who works in IT) that mainly consisted of him trying to calm me down. A few days later and she is working like always, I just had to let it dry for a few days with the battery out and now it's like nothing ever happened (although there are sticky keys...). Anyway, I have another outfit post for you today in the form of my outfit for a lovely Valentine's evening spent with my boyfriend. All items are a few months old unfortunately but they are so basic that you will most likely be able to pick up similar elsewhere. The playsuit is Topshop and the shoes are Primark.
My makeup look for the evening consisted of Rimmel Foundation, The colour Experts Naked palette eyeshadow and lipstick by MUA in shade 3. I would write a lengthy paragraph about it here, but I'll put up a haul post in the coming days for you as I've gone a little beauty made recently. If you are wondering how I spent my evening, my boyfriend cooked me dinner and we went out for cocktails. It was actually really lovely to spend the evening with just him and we didn't get wasted or anything we just enjoyed each other's company and had a laugh.
I hope you all had a lovely day taken or single. Why not comment below and let me know what you got up to?
New Look Winter Coat
Not only did I go out for cake and tea on Sunday, it was also the day I got to try out my new coat from New Look. I purchased it in the sale for just £20 and it is super cosy and warm! I really wanted a new black coat as my other one is quite old now, the lining is all ripped on the inside and most of the buttons are missing. This new coat is done up with just a zip so I've no worries of missing buttons and it fits so beautifully with enough room to allow me to wear a jumper underneath. I styled it with a jumper I bought in Topshop last year, black skinnies, a primark bag and a pair of leopard Vans. I absolutely love Vans off the wall plimsolls, they are so comfortable and you can get them in numerous styles which means that you can get a pair to compliment any outfit! I did have the original black Vans but they met their untimely end when I decided to wear them to a fair, not realising it was going to be extremely muddy! Needless to say they did not survive. I'm much more careful with these ones and they make for perfect footwear for a countryside stroll!
Our walk took us up near Old Sarum Castle in Salisbury, Wiltshire. We were a bit late to go and see the castle ruins but we could walk around the grounds and get a beautiful view of the city from the hill as well as the sunset. I'm not a fan of cold weather, nor winter at all really, but with a view as pretty as this and such good weather, it felt good to be outside.

Walking in a winter wonderland.
Another outfit post for you lovelies!
A few photos from my outfit of the day yesterday from a visit to Winter Wonderland in London, I pulled the coat out again but it's much better styled this time. I got a brand new phone and it takes great pictures so I managed to get some images with much more detail! The hat, boots and shirt are all from H&M and are new and I will post about them and the rest of my November haul later as well as a post about my day at Winter Wonderland.

Outfit of the day 24.10
I haven't posted an outfit post in a very long time and that is mostly due to the fact that I don't own a very good camera. I really want to invest in a good one soon, it's something i've been hoping to purchase since I left school and seeing as that was about 6 years ago now it's high time I did it! Until then I will have to make do with my little automatic and my boyfriend's iphone which in all fairness aren't too bad. I was ecstatic to try out my new coat today and surprise surprise it is featuring in this outfit post! It's a bit of a mundane outfit but I was running late this morning and all I wanted was to be comfortable and warm.
I cannot stress enough how impressed I am with this coat and it surpassed all expectations on it's trial run today so I am certainly looking forward to tackling winter in it. The rest of the outfit is Jeans, necklace and jumper with lace hem from New Look and shoes from Primark. I really wanted to get these shoes into a post as they are currently in Primark stores for a bargain £14.00 and considering how amazing they are, who can argue with that price! They aren't real leather of course and they have cute cut out sides but I am wearing them with black socks as I needed to keep my feet warm. They look great with a dress as well!
Outfit Of The Day #6
Shirt - George @ Asda
Jeans - New Look
Boots - Topshop
Tote Bag - Primark
This isn't quite my outfit of the day as it is from yesterday, but that doesn't really matter does it? Cool, well this was on the way back from work as i had to go in for a few hours, boo! It wasn't all bad though as the UK is nice and sunny at the moment so the walk home was lovely. Pretty much everything apart from the jeans were bought last year, but i'm all about recycling clothes - none of this wear once rubbish for me! I have also dyed my hair to have a slightly red tint to it, though i didn't realise at first that it is only semi permanent hair colour, ah well. It also needs a good cut but i'm not sure what to do with it, ideas anyone?
